<span>Recordings are made with sensors recording particle motion at or near the surface of the ocean. Since the speed of sound in sea water is known, the travel time for sound reflections can be determined from the simple equation v = 2d/t where d is the distance down and back up, and t is the difference in time from the source time to the time a reflection is record. This can be rearranged to d = v*t/2.</span>

State two immediate responses to a tectonic hazard that could reduce the number of deaths
nata0808 [166]
A tectonic hazard would be something that isn't expected but only lasts so long.
Example: an earthquake or tsunami
The best example is an earthquake
Immediate responses would be to take shelter under a sturdy building or get to high grounds where nothing can fall on you.
The number of deaths could be reduced by having regular safety checks of buildings and if you know you are near tectonic plate shifting then the building should be built with study material.
